Minnesota Lung Cancer Screening Task Force Annual Meeting

---

LIVE

Friday, December 9, 2022, 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM, Other, Minneapolis, MN


Healthcare professionals (from primary care to specialty departments that work with lung cancer patients) are invited to join their peers from across the state and from other healthcare systems to continue the conversation about lung cancer screening. With less than 10% of those who are eligible for screening receiving their annual low-dose CT scan, we have work to do. The current five-year lung cancer survival rate is 22%.
This annual meeting features presenters from the medical community and roundtable discussions on various topics, including ways to overcome patient and system barriers to lung cancer screening.

1. Describe updates on regulatory and eligibility requirements for lung cancer screening
2. Apply lung cancer screening decision aids
